This board is negative as f***. He had a decent game today.

:thup: He was at worst average today, and yet we are still gifted with continuous discussion of how poor a player he is.

 

Different day, same story on this forum. They spend their time mocking him for his white skin (I am sure if his pigmentation was of a different ethnicity, they would say nowt about that) and his speech impediment, but they reserve their ire mostly for his biggest disability of all, his nationality.

 

If his name was Jaques Le Col Baque, with Ugandan origin  they would be far more tolerable. For evidence of this, see their rampant and sinister defence of Vernon Anita, by far one of the most pointless players the premier league has ever seen, but due to nefarious reasons outlined earlier, they will remorselessly defend him until the cows come home.

 

 

 

This is very true mind.

 

Makes me sick, the defence of Bramble, Boumsong and Ameobi was so transparent.

He did fade yesterday but so did the whole team. His block at the end was excellent though, and I thought his passing kept us ticking over.

 

And it showed when Tiote came on - the difference is plain to see. Tiote is gone, he is s*** now.

 

Sometimes I wonder about this Board, because the opinion of people in the stands I speak to, and in the pub is different to on here. People think he is a decent player, maybe not starting all the time, but a useful squad member. On here, it's relentless negative banter.

This is weapons-grade retardation.

 

I reckon if he was called Lin-Con Eemp you'd reckon he was a f***ing mint poster and not at all a complete knuckle dragging fuckwit.

 

Once again, anti English xenephobia on display. I notice no one has had the grace or dignity to offer an opposition to my post, rather just decide they are offended for no justifiable reason whatsoever.

Nobody takes you seriously enough to be offended by you churning out the same shit post after post.

I think the criticism is mainly aimed at his role yesterday. He's a decent squad player as you say but why is he playing the same role as Anita but worse?

Strange, because the people watching the match in the pub i was at yesterday seemed to think he was pretty shite.

The English players get a rough ride is a load of bollocks that has crept up for years in support for many poor to average players who have eventually left for greater pastures in the lower leagues.

 

Amdy Faye got slated and people preferred Lee Clark on the whole even though if you analysed the pair objectively, at that time there was little in it.

He does start all the time though.

 

Funny like, I don't remember this fawning over him when he was at Sunderland, or a burning desire for such a great player to play for Newcastle. Everyone thought he was a bland clogger and chuckled at our quality in comparison to theirs.

As somebody said above, he keeps us ticking over with short no nonsense passing. I would also agree that he, in reality, is no Pirlo, but we know what he does and he does it week in week out, therefore giving a sense of security and consistency in a position that in time will get an updgrade. He gives 110% which for me is decent enough, his ability is what it is and until we sign an upgrade give the lad a break...FFS!

I noticed three things this guy did yesterday. The foul on Mane and the two blocks at the end.

 

Can someone please let me know where he was the remainder of the game? Thanks.

 

The comparison to Anita makes me sick. Anita constantly made himself available for the ball to start off moves from the back, and constantly pressed and harried the opposition to good effect, without stupid fouls.

 

I genuinely don't understand what people are watching when they compare the two. But it's okay, we're playing Swansea next. Let's see if the improved build up play we all saw yesterday is still evident if Anita has to miss out.

 

Bloody ridiculous s*** man.

Who's fawning over him? There are few people defending him because he gets over the top criticism/abuse on here. Thankfully it doesn't exist outside this forum.

 

That said I saw some places have him down as MOTM yesterday, which is equally absurd.

 

He shouldn't be in our starting 11 because we should be aiming higher but there is a place for him in our squad.

Exactly. Nobody is fawning over him at all.
